Ahh, alot more detailed than my story you checked out Burkeyoa. Im in march now if you want to catch up with it. Loving this story though, its a great read so far...Hope you have a good start to the season.
August Update
August seen the start of the Coca Cola Championship season. With as many teams as 14 with a real chance of promotion the season will certainly be an exciting one. Our aim this season is to indeed achieve promotion back to where we belong, the Premiership. We start the season with a home game against Championship favourites Newcastle.
Odds for the Coca Cola Championship
Newcastle............3/1
Middlesbrough......5/1
West Brom..........6/1
Sheff Utd.............6/1
Reading.............10/1
Cardiff................10/1
Notts Forest.......16/1
Preston..............20/1
Bristol City.........20/1

A great win against league favourites Newcastle. We had to show great character to come from behind and we also passed Newcastle of the park in the second half. More of the same please
Man of the match Chris Brunt

League Cup Round 1
West Brom 2 Dag & Red 0 - Moore (4) Sergi (pen28)
MOM - Sergi
A completely new starting 11 that lined out against Newcastle and you would not have noticed the difference as we played great again. Young Sergi showed up really well and the 16 year old looks to have a bright future in the game.
we are pleased to have progressed to round 2.
Goal Scorer Moore

Coca Cola Championship Match 2
Notts Forest 2 West Brom 1 - McGoldrick (16) Adebola (67) Meite (36)
MOM - Meite
A very even game in which we did not deserve to lose. However we will take the positives from the game and move on. Meite was a rock at the back today and was rewarded with MOM.

Coca Cola Championship Match 3
Peterborough 0 West Brom 3 - *** (32) Jara (52,90+2)
MOM - Jara
A great away performance and the perfect way to respond to our defeat last time out. In truth we never looked like losing this game and dominated from start to finish.

View attachment 82228
In fairness we where second best in this game right up until Healy got sent off just after his goal. we played really poorly and had Healy stayed on the field I did not see Ipswich losing the game. However we our delighted with another 3 points
Healy had mixed fortunes

Player Of The Month Simon ***

*** has been superb this month scoring some very good goals that have won us matches. He is playing that good that Djalo cant even get on the team.

A good solid first month for the club with only the one defeat. We also managed to record a win against Newcastle and are in the Hat for the 3rd round of the FA cup. The new players are starting to fit in now and there is a great squad harmony.
